So, with an initial disclaimer that we have to some extent cargo-culted
our process here from the kernel, my view is:
* we only take pull requests from known submaintainers (ie I will
not take a pull request from an arbitrary person)
* I don't do anything with pull requests beyond an automated build
test and eyeball of the git log for any obvious howlers
* a pull request is therefore equivalent to being able to directly
commit to master, and so it's worth using the signed-tag machinery
to ensure that we only give those rights to the people (submaintainers)
we think we've given them to
Conversely, a random set of patches sent to the list is supposed
to be reviewed and tested by the submaintainer who applies them to
their tree -- that is the gateway at which review happens.
